These core drives and their relation to each other create a behavioral pattern that provides a framework for understanding the workplace behaviors of candidates and employees.

Considered Both Products
Pointerpro
Chose Pointerpro
We are currently looking into JotForm. Their prices are much more reasonable. They offer 10,000 submissions a month for $29. Why can't you guys offer something like that? I would fall in love with Survey Anyplace if the price was $29/month. I would tell everyone to purchase it. …
Chose Pointerpro
Unable to remember names, but other competitors were very highly-priced.
Chose Pointerpro
Monthly fees as opposed to annual. As a returning user to Survey Monkey, they wouldn't allow me to have a month-to-month contract.
Chose Pointerpro
Survey Anyplace allows respondents to save progress, offered a respectable UI (User Interface), and offered surveys with a modern design. It seems most survey tools are designed for short/quick responses. The really modern, intuitive and design aesthetic options aren't designed …
Chose Pointerpro
I looked at a few options through Google searches but none of the solutions could cater to my quiz's logic and formula needs.
Chose Pointerpro
Survey Anyplace is much more customizable and flexible than any alternatives I have tried.
Chose Pointerpro
Survey Anyplace is an excellent piece of software.

Chose Pointerpro
Survey Anyplace was the only tool that could handle the survey, email campaigns, and ecommerce. No other tool that we found could compare.
Chose Pointerpro
This is not a tool we use for our heavy-duty market research studies - rather, it complements our existing research tools.
Chose Pointerpro
Survey Anyplace has incredible customization and with is ReportR feature... hands down the most powerful app out there.
Chose Pointerpro
Not as intuitive as Typeform but has a bit more flexibility and significantly more custom scoring options.
Chose Pointerpro
Outgrow's pricing was simply not competitive -- to my memory, it was about 6x per month what SurveyAnyplace charges for their Enterprise plan, which felt extravagant considering our scope. Their sales team was also rather difficult to work with.
Chose Pointerpro
Survey AnyPlace has a lot more flexibility and types of questions, plus the ability to customize the branding/look/feel.
Chose Pointerpro
We conducted a market survey of available tools that met our requirements.

Other assessments provide more than two questions [in] order to determine our candidate's skills. I do believe [some] variety might help Predictive Index Behaviour Assessment determine more accurate results since candidates would have to answer more questions about their …
Chose Predictive Index Behavioral Assessment
In my years as an HR admin, I have not tried any other programs like this one.
Chose Predictive Index Behavioral Assessment
Many years ago, I utilized Personalysis and it tended to put people into one of 4 main color groups. It also helped with knowing how to communicate with others. I like PI because there are so many Behavioral Profiles.
Chose Predictive Index Behavioral Assessment
I have used MBTI, Strengthsfinder, Disc, Kolbe among others. I find they all have their place. PI was already in use at my company when I joined. However, as I became certified and used it more, I have found it very effective. The reports have just the right amount of …
Chose Predictive Index Behavioral Assessment
PI is way better - the Wonderlic is very limited in what information it can provide you with a candidate.
Chose Predictive Index Behavioral Assessment
PI is a much simpler profile to manage and is clearly about behavior instead of personality.
Chose Predictive Index Behavioral Assessment
I have only used PI. We assessed Culture Index recently to see if there were additional factors that would be helpful, however found it to be poorly worded and with significantly fewer resources for education, training and overall use.
Chose Predictive Index Behavioral Assessment
[We selected PI Behavioral Assessment because we] Can tailor it to positions. Provides clear data.
Chose Predictive Index Behavioral Assessment
PI is simple to use, in a short time scale but provides startling insight into the individual.
Chose Predictive Index Behavioral Assessment
The only other type of Behavioral Assessment I've used is the Strengths Finder and I don't know that I'd say it's anything like PI. It still gives us great information about a persons strengths but PI tells us more about a persons motivations.
Chose Predictive Index Behavioral Assessment
DISC is similar but really only focuses on the employee in a business setting. The PI Behavioral Assessment looks at the employee as a person as well as an employee. It is not how you respond to a question but what attributes you have.
Chose Predictive Index Behavioral Assessment
I haven't used any other assessments in the past, so I don't have anything to compare to...unfortunately. I think the PI is probably the strongest assessment out there, and most accurate. It's used worldwide, and has scientific backing to prove its validity. If I were to …
Chose Predictive Index Behavioral Assessment
The other assessments that we examined felt more like an SAT exam than a recruitment tool. The results were difficult for our managers to read through and understand. There were a lot of words, with very little actually being said. The PI was succinct and precise.
Chose Predictive Index Behavioral Assessment
From 2011-2016 we used DiSC and PI Behavioral Assessment together. We found DiSC to be more employee friendly, meaning employees don't need to be trainined administrators to understand their own report. However, our DiSC trained employee has left, and we opted to stick with …
Chose Predictive Index Behavioral Assessment
We haven't used any other assessments to compare against it. We've been in love with PI since we started.
Chose Predictive Index Behavioral Assessment
We also use a Bartell Assessment for managers.
Chose Predictive Index Behavioral Assessment
We use multiple assessments for a variety of reasons. This one is the most versatile that we have. Others we use either for individual development or team development, but PI is the only one we use for Recruiting, individual development and team development.
Chose Predictive Index Behavioral Assessment
We evaluated a number of alternatives. Most of them were cost prohibitive because they wanted to charge us per survey. We have a very seasonal workforce so that cost model was not going to work for us. With PI we have a fixed cost each year. Easy to budget... no guessing or …
Chose Predictive Index Behavioral Assessment
Most of the other assessments in the marketplace are lengthy and complicated. The PI Behavioral Assessment is so user-friendly that many job applicants have told me they prefer it over other assessments they have taken. The other great thing about the PI assessment is that it …

I found the platform to be very suitable for assessment/survey products. Nevertheless, the offer is limited to some markets and may not work well for countries that have different languages, especially Asian countries. I have yet to test this out myself, but fingers crossed. I hope it works. It would be nice if the company could advise exactly which country the platform is working in.

Predictive Index has served us well so far in helping determine key personality traits of salespeople we hire. How will they sell? Is sales a good fit for them? We have not expanded to use it with other teams/depts yet. We primarily use the behavioral assessment (not cognitive).

Cons
  • Creating something highly customized at the ReportR level means you will need to have some savvy with CSS if you want to do it yourself. But it also means you can create something truly incredible and they do not have the same limitations as other similar software.

  • In Beta -> Hire -> New Candidates - > I would like to see the ability to create 1 or 2 additional "Type" folders that can be customized for my company. By being able to do this, I can more efficiently manage my potential candidates, rather that every time I go to review a position, having to make these individual selections each time. I would like the favorite icon and the pass icon to remain; however find it extraneous to have to sort through these candidates each time.

Usability
We found it user friendly and fairly easy to set-up with our current personnel and without having to engage external consultants or to do any specific software development. It helped us implement a new marketing approach in very agile and quick way, which is much appreciated these days since you always have to act rapidly on the market not to loose any opportunities!

Very easy to use for both administrators and those taking the assessment. This tool is really a game-changer for staffing, onboarding, and retention. It is like having a crystal ball sometimes with insights into the behaviors of job candidates and is critical for finding the right person for the right role.

I wish there was a better live chat feature. Seems like I have to wait 30-60 every time I need to talk to someone. Though once I am able to speak with someone via the chat in my account, they have been very helpful in answering my questions or pointing me in the right direction.

The Customer Success team has been quite helpful during the times that I've interreacted with them. I've also found support and implementation to be responsive with any questions related to the initial set up phase or for on going support. Overall we've been pleased with the support offered by Predictive Index Behavioral Assessment.

Return on Investment
  • As a publisher, the quizzes provide us with compelling type of "advertising" product to engage our clients' audiences.
  • We use the quizzes to direct respondents to thought leadership content for lead gen. The "correct response" feature in the quizzes provide the most interesting sample of our clients' content.

  • The PI has been very helpful when analyzing employees. You cannot go wrong when you are able to see a candidate or employees work style.
  • The ROI is very positive. A lot of companies have a specific culture that they are trying to create or adhere to. This software helps you see if an employee would be a good fit for your company or not.
